Marek and Marysia Kiewra (Poland)

In the beginning of the Nineties, God sent Marek Kiewra to Gryfow Slaski, Poland. God put in his heart a vision to start a church in this small town. In 2003, the church in Gryfow had an attendance of over 100 people at Sunday worship services; and they had renovated a building of its own seating 160 people.

Then a new vision begin to stir in Pastor Marek’s heart – God was calling Pastor Marek to build a Mission Conference Center where groups of pastors and leaders from the region could come for retreats and develop spiritually, deepen their knowledge of God, build relationships, and rest.

​Their goal for a Mission Conference Center became a reality in January 2006 when the Mission Conference Center hosted its first conference!

NEW FURNACE!

This book, When God Sent Grace to the Soviet Gulag, by Andrew Mytych, is a woven tapestry of life in pre- and post-World War II Poland and the account of a man, Cezary Kiewra, whose life was sovereignly changed forever while a prisoner in the cruel Soviet labor-camp prison system known as the GULAG. Various and diverse stories of Cezary, his family, and friends then merge into a single entity. The background is the Second World War in Eastern Europe, the reality of the Stalinist USSR, the repatriation of exiles, and life in post-war communist Poland. Historically, the book also presents aspects of evangelical Polish culture in the 50s, 60s and 70s of the last century from the perspective of an ordinary family of believers and their friends. The book was written as a testimony of those days to make sure their realities do not get lost in oblivion because no one recorded the life stories. Additionally, it fills a big gap in the literature on the life and ministry of evangelical Christians in the communist countries of Europe.
